Nope, no such laws. The Prophet allowed children to play with toys. Does not matter if it looked like pigs or dogs. Those animals may be dirty & can't be eaten but we should not treat or look at em in a bad way.

already answered in R&S section

-edit-
bulce g, i made a mistake. pls forgive me. when i click the link you provided, i answered it straight away and by mistake i thought i'm still in travel malaysia section. I only realize it when i go back to travel malaysia section. so to save my time, i just ask you to refer my answer i've written in R&S section. Would you kindly accept my apology? I didn't mean to offend anybody here. my answer is meant to share the knowledge i had. i'm never expecting my answer to be appreciated

But since you insisted it, here's my answer i extracted from R&S section:

no never heard of that. toys are toys, and they're for kids, no issue i think.

also as far as i know muslim are allowed to touch pigs and dogs, only need different kind/method of washing after that
bulce g, i'm actually never interested to answer R&S section. Pls check my profile. I think 99% of my answers are in travel malaysia section. I also answer all type of questions in YA travel Malaysia, no matter whether it's travel related or non related. Those who are regular here knew it

btw thanks for the remark, maybe i'm such a jerk to others, But don't worry i didn't feel offended, and you don't have to say sorry. i'll get myself more improved next time. have a nice day
wrong section

EDIT: but i have no idea to yr question also .. to be certain mabye u can check with some govt site..
i think its okay to have them as long as it isnt used as an idol of worship. these are just cuddly cute looking soft toys meant for kids/adults alike.

however;

i did came across people who follows stricter doctrines which prohibits them from having in posession/in the house/producing:
1. any complete form of animals toys (life-like)
2. any complete form of human (life-like) statues/carvings
3. displaying pictures in frame
4. television
5. radio
6. any form of entertainment

the reason behind 1-2 was because, they didnt wish to emulate idol worshipping; as well as it would be seen as challenging God's as the ultimate creator. The creator of such a thing would be asked on judgement day to give the toy a life. soft toys are soft toys, doesnt matter which animal it was. some people said that as long as it doesnt come in a complete form, it is allowed. but some people prohibits them totally.

the reason behind not having any pictures/television/radio was said to prevent a person from being swayed by satan. These things were said would make them forget their duty to God.

my friend's sister studied in Los Angeles, upon completion she came home and threw away all the listed items above, depriving her own parents of television/radio/any form of modern amenities because she said those things are opposing the true belief.

But i find this too extreme..because her parents didnt expect those things to happen to her, given that they sent her to a university in Los Angeles above all places and she came home acting like an extremists.

Back to your question above, again i would think its okay to have cute piggy and puppy toys as long as it is not use for worshipping. It has nothing to do with pigs/dogs are haram. Those asre just toys.
already answer for you on the other section.
dear bul ce ge.
i will answer this question base on my own understanding the muslim law & practise (i;m a muslim).

It is not against muslim law by having this toys.
However, there's one hukum call makroh.. not sure how they said in english.. it means that its not a good practice but if you have it/ do it it doesn't consider as a sin.. but the god does not like it..

dont be to hush on those two guys.. no need u to react that way.. they are trying to give answer as good as possible..
